Question 1
Question 1: Create a python program to sort the given list of tuples
based on integer value using a lambda function.
[('Sachin Tendulkar', 34357), ('Ricky Ponting', 27483), ('Jack Kallis', 25534), ('Virat Kohli',
24936)]
Answer: I have also used sorted inbuilt function for this along with
lambda function
The sorted function is a built-in function in Python used to sort a sequence (lists, tuples, etc.) in ascending order
by default. The function returns a sorted list from the input sequence.
Syntax: sorted(iterable, key=None, reverse=False)
iterable: The sequence (list, tuple, etc.) that needs to be sorted.
key: A function that serves as a key for the sort comparison. It takes one argument and returns one value.
The default value is None, which sorts the elements based on their natural order.
reverse: A Boolean value that indicates whether the sort order should be in descending (True) or ascending
(False) order. The default value is False.

# Orignal list players is shown
players = [('Sachin Tendulkar', 34357), ('Ricky Ponting', 27483), ('Jack Kallis', 25534)
, ('Virat Kohli', 24936)]
print(players)
[('Sachin Tendulkar', 34357), ('Ricky Ponting', 27483), ('Jack Kallis', 25534), ('Virat K
ohli', 24936)]
In [2]:
# Sort based on sorted function where i use lambda function in key
sort_players = sorted(players, key = lambda x: x[1], reverse=False)
print(sort_players)
[('Virat Kohli', 24936), ('Jack Kallis', 25534), ('Ricky Ponting', 27483), ('Sachin Tendu
lkar', 34357)]
Question 2
Question 2
Question 2: Write a Python Program to find the squares of all the
numbers in the given list of integers using lambda and map
functions.
[1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10]
Answer :
In [3]:
l = [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10]
sqr = map(lambda x : x*x , l)
print(list(sqr))
[1, 4, 9, 16, 25, 36, 49, 64, 81, 100]
Question 3
Question 3: Write a python program to convert the given list of integers
into a tuple of strings. Use map and lambda functions
Given String: [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10]
Expected output: ('1', '2', '3', '4', '5', '6', '7', '8', '9', '10')
Answer :
In [4]:
l = [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10]
string_l = map(lambda s: str(s),l)
print(tuple(string_l))
('1', '2', '3', '4', '5', '6', '7', '8', '9', '10')
Question 4
Question 4 : Write a python program using reduce function to compute
the product of a list containing numbers from 1 to 25.
Answer :
In [5]:
# Creating a list containing numbers from 1 to 25
nums = list(range(1,26))
print(nums)
[1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25
]
In [6]:
# Creating a reduce function with lambda for computing the product
from functools import reduce
product = reduce(lambda x,y: x*y,nums)
print(f'Product of numbers from 1 to 25 is {product}')
Product of numbers from 1 to 25 is 15511210043330985984000000
Question 5
Question 5 : Write a python program to filter the numbers in a given list
that are divisible by 2 and 3 using the filter function.
[2, 3, 6, 9, 27, 60, 90, 120, 55, 46]
Answer :
In [7]:
# Defining the orignal list and printing
l = [2, 3, 6, 9, 27, 60, 90, 120, 55, 46]
print(l)
[2, 3, 6, 9, 27, 60, 90, 120, 55, 46]
In [8]:
# Filtered list of numbers which are divisible by 2 and 3
filtered_l = filter(lambda x : x%2==0 and x%3==0,l)
print(list(filtered_l))
[6, 60, 90, 120]
Question 6
Question 6: Write a python program to find palindromes in the given list
of strings using lambda and filter function.
['python', 'php', 'aba', 'radar', 'level']
['python', 'php', 'aba', 'radar', 'level']
Answer :
Palindrome - a word, phrase, or sequence that reads the same backwards as forwards, e.g. madam, nurses, run
In [9]:
# Defining orignal list of strings
s = ['python', 'php', 'aba', 'radar', 'level']
print(s)
['python', 'php', 'aba', 'radar', 'level']
In [10]:
# Using filter and lambda function to find palindromes
# I have done case unification to lower here incase any string written in different cases
palindromes = filter(lambda x: x.lower() == x[::-1].lower() , s)
print(list(palindromes))
['php', 'aba', 'radar', 'level']
